| Rise Against – Savior Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
When I heard this song I didn't hear a love song in the traditional sense. Not one to a lover anyways. But one for a mother. This may be personal bias, but it's just what I picked up. The aging face is really what drives the idea home to me. You don't describe your lovers face as an aging face with valleys. This idea of the opposite figure trying to say I don't hate you, I'm just trying to save you rings of 'this will hurt me more than it hurts you'. I remember being a teenager and like many others having this foolish idea that my parents hated me. That they were trying to torture you through the years. Then eventually comes the day where you ether pleasantly or unpleasantly leave your home. For no man does it ever wait and boy does it feel like crushing waves once you hit that real world. Like I said, probably some heavy bias in my idea, but I like it none the less. |

| Guys the whole hitman and assassin ideas are way out of line. An assassin does not manipulate the masses. You're taking the word sight and right between the eyes too literal. | |

see I'm getting a completely different view. I don't see government or bush, I see the complete opposite; the revolter. A person in the background manipulating the crowd. He knows how to change people with lies. He's going to sneak in with the group where he is needed, start the revolt, and let the crowd take over. I don't see anything about guns. Hit em right between the eyes just means kill shot to me. Take em out in one swift punch. As for the 'dance fucker dance' all I get is someone plucking at puppet strings. |

If I can't crawl inside of you, I'm laughing with a broken face I stumble across my self esteem. But to picture the pleasure is making me want my space. --I want to be a part of you. As someone else said, The broken face immediately brings up a vision of a cracked mask. The idea of being happy, of enjoying himself, makes him want to seperate himself from whatever causes that. Understand... that God wrapped you like a bow. But in my head... There's some shelves that need cleaning, from basement to ceiling, control. --You came to me all set and ready to go. You're perfect in every way shape and form for me. I'm kinda torn on this part I think not only does it mean that he's got some things to take care of, but I also get this idea of cleaning being a distraction to keep himself away from her. If what you're seeing is an open book, thats great 'cuz I'm an open book. But I'm real shy. -- You say you can read me like an open book. That's fucking fantastic, I'm so open book you can read. He, like most people, become insulted when they are told they are easily read. There's a part of me seeking and desperatly needing to open up. That's strange 'cuz I'm an open book, a confused boy. -- Part of him wants to climb out of his shell and let everyone know who he is. Isn't that funny because everyone says he's an open book, which shouldn't have unknowns. I'm an automatic steeple for depressed and lonely people. My heart while in its cage, is used to give and not receive a thing, But the only funny thing is that I dont know how to give myself advice. -- I attracts and maybe even enjoys helping people figure out their shit. I'm fantastic at leading people through their troubles, problem is I can't help myself with those same problems. I've got this post dramatic thing I've got this tattoo of a ring that lies around my wedding finger and thats where I want to state this claim. That I've got to learn to live and dream before I go and get myself in love. -- I want to work on finding myself before I let myself fall in love. In love. Theres Zoloft, Welbutrin, theres Paxil thats proven, no side effects. But the rest left unnamed 'cuz they worked like a charm on me. -- I sense sarcasm. There are all these miracle drugs that have worked fantastically on me with no side effects, can't you tell? And she's not helping it ether. But when your savings is drying, you can't stop from crying you've got to suck it up. You're not her buttercup, you're not her favorite book. -- But even though those miracle drugs don't work and I still feel so insanely depressed about not being perfect for her the only thing I can do is suck it up. |

| Linkin Park – Shadow Of The Day Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I close both locks below the window. I close both blinds and turn away. Sometimes solutions aren't so simple. Sometimes goodbye's the only way. I don't see suicide. I see closing off the world. When you want to hide from everyone you shut everything out. And the sun will set for you, The sun will set for you. And the shadow of the day, Will embrace the world in grey, And the sun will set for you. What has happened has happened, no getting around it. The sun is gunna set and you have to move on. Pink cards and flowers on your window, Your friends all plead for you to stay. Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple. Sometimes goodbye's the only way. Trying to start over to get back up is difficult. It feels like the only way is to just say good bye. |

| Linkin Park – In Between Lyrics | 18 years ago |

I like this song a lot. Linkin Park does not have to be about screaming emo kiddies. If a band is real they are willing to spread out their style. This is definitely a positive move with this song. as for the song, I don't think it has to do with cheating. There are just a couple lyrics that don't fit. "My pride And my promise" there isn't a lot of pride in cheating nor admitting it. "But trying to be someone else was harder than it seemed" doesn't fit at all. I think it's pretty literal. The 'person' was trying to be someone he was not. Maybe it was with a girl (there always seems to be a girl). Now, telling someone that "hey, I was bullshitting. This isn't really how I am. I'm not this 'cool'" takes a big hit to the pride. The only thing I can't fit is the promise part. What did he promise? |

| Thrice – Image of the Invisible Lyrics | 19 years ago |

While canticle is most often used in refrence to psalms from the bible, you must remember that the word existed before the bible. It can be used to just mean "sacred song". A battle hymn can be a canticle. Doesn't think song make you want to stand up and fight for something? To my the song just sings to the generation. You can't just take the shit going on lying down. We are not some expendable resource that be used. Can't let a vile world to be created. If they try to snuff you, fight back and shine bright. Image of the invisible: The physical representation of your ideas. Don't let thoughts just drift by, do something with them, become them. Like in V for vendetta "We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world." |
